Automotive Electric Power Steering System Market Analysis
Automotive Electric Power Steering Market is valued at USD 20.15 billion currently, and it is expected to reach USD 29 billion with a CAGR of 6.26% over the forecast period.
During the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the market was hit adversely because of the disruption caused in the supply chain as several major economies of the world were forced into lockdown and economic activities were halted during this period. All the manufacturing units and OEM plants stopped their production to adhere to the social distancing norms and restrict the spread of the virus. The demand for passenger vehicles also fell drastically during this period. Yet with the gradual opening up of economies, the demand returned to the market, and markets like China and India witnessed huge demand for passenger cars as the consumer preference changed from public transport to personal vehicles. The trend is expected to continue during the forecast period.
Electric power steering (EPS) system is an alternative to traditional steering systems, such as hydraulic and electro-hydraulic systems. The rising popularity of self-driving vehicles is fueling the demand growth in the electric power steering system market across the world. Vehicles that are equipped with electric power steering tend to have a reduced overall weight, which further increases fuel efficiency. On the contrary, when compared to the conventional steering systems, the electric power steering systems are costly, and a rise in vehicle recalls, owing to malfunctioning of sensors or other components, may hinder the growth of the market.
Electric systems are highly fuel-efficient, due to the absence of belt-driven hydraulic or manual pumps, which run constantly, whether assistance is required or not. EPS provides fuel savings as high as 0.4 l for every 100 km, along with a reduction in CO2 emissions of up to 7 g/km.
The Asia-Pacific region is the largest market for automobiles in the world. Despite the Chinese market experiencing sluggish growth, which is the largest automobile market in the world, the region is expected to lead in the automotive electric power steering (EPS) market. In addition, region is flourished with widely spread automotive suppliers in China, India etc. which are amintaing global supply chain capabilities.
